Triptii Dimri opens up about Dhadak 2
In an interview with Mid-Day, Triptii Dimri was asked to share what made her say yes to Dhadak 2. The actress said that it was her character and the film's messaging.
“For me, she is Vidhi [her character]. She is not afraid to speak her truth. There is so much to learn from her because she makes you feel empowered,” says Dimri. The actor believes that knowing Iqbal has changed her perspective. “I have been an introvert. I have seen and faced things, and not raised my voice against them. For 30 years of my life, I have kept quiet about so many things," she said.
Triptii also added that she told filmmaker Shazia Iqba that she wants to be like Vidhi; that by the end of this film, she should have the courage to speak her truth without being scared of anyone or the outcome. "Now, I do stand up for the right things. This film made me open up a lot more,” Triptii said.
